[Amc-list] ZDDP Mobil Oil List

[Nick ALFANO <71amx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

As for high content of zinc, the Joe Gibbs Break-in Oil has about 2800 ppm of ZDP which is 2.5 times the amount in CJ4 style diesel oils.   The BR oil is $6.99/quart.  The Hot Rod oil contains roughly 1500 ppm along with anti-friction and anti-rust additives for street/strip use in engines that tend to sit for days without being run.  The HR oil is $9.99/quart.  They also have all out racing oil for a number of different sanctions.  Remember, you get what you pay for and oil is no place to save a buck.

"Motorhead" makes a special high zinc and phosporous oil. 0.250% zinc, 
doesn't give phosphorous amount in the ad. Check www.motorheadoil.com. 
They also make a 0.125% zinc oil, and a "ZBoost" (zinc boost) additive 
for $9.95 that treats 5-6 quarts, bringing zinc levels back up to  
API-SL levels (0.110% zinc).
I haven't tried it and get nothing from Motorhead, except for a $40 paid 
ad in AMC. ($40 gets vendors a 1/3 page ad for a year!!
